Thank you for applying to intern at a YC company. Unfortunately we weren't able to find a position for you this time.
Since it's our first time matching interns with YC companies, we're beta testing the program with just a small number of companies. Based on the high volume of high quality applications (over 1600) we received, we hope to expand this program in the future. We hope you'll apply again.
Rejected again. Unfortunately I don't have the prestige of MIT, Stanford, Harvard, or other top schools to carry my application through.
I don't think school is too important. My friend and I are from the same school, I got to the next round, he didn't. (He's going to go work for Google anyway, so it doesn't matter). That being said, it probably does play _some_ factor.
